If You Had to Explain Today’s America to Founders

By Bradlee Dean on Oct 25, 2014


Picture this: You’re going to be meeting with George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin. They wants to know what has happened to America. What will you say?

This meeting will determine for our Founding Forefathers if what they sacrificed (at so great a cost) and gave their lives in the service of was worth it. They want to know if the posterity they entrusted their beloved country to had taken up the task with honor, the task of preserving our freedoms as a nation, our morals, principles and the Christian values this country was founded upon over 238 years ago.
Think about it for a moment.

You would have to explain to them how this nation is not the same country they gave us.

You would have to explain how 3,700 babies are murdered in the womb everyday by their own mothers with the approval all of those who stand by and do nothing.

You would have to explain how men “marry” men and women “marry” women with government’s consent and how children in public schools are violated every day by sexual predators.

You would have to explain to them how blasphemy, fornication (sex outside of marriage – 1 Corinthians 6:9) and lewdness are commonplace in our society as a whole. Despite all this, the pulpits in America (for the most part) remain silent, and the church has become a reproach to the nation (See Jeremiah 23, Matthew 23).

You would have to tell them that drinking, gambling, lying, stealing and doing whatever you want, as long as it feels good to you, have become the status quo, instead of a love for God, country, your fellow man and doing unto others as you would have them do unto you (Luke 6:31).

You would have to convey to them that the American people (for the most part) have stood down, tolerated and enabled a tyrannical president and his administration, which are willingly and knowingly destroying America.

You would have to bring them up to speed on why the American people have allowed a criminal administration to remain without consequence for violating numerous laws. These issues include such crimes as Benghazi, Fast and Furious, the IRS scandal and much, much more.

You would even have to explain to them how the government now has their hooks into nearly every portion of our lives, even to the point where if you want to fish in your own lake outside your backdoor, build a fire outside your front door, or even own a gun (which is your right, protected by the Second Amendment), you now have to ask for and receive the government’s permission by getting a permit.
What do you think, after telling them all this, would be the look on their faces? Would it be sadness? Disbelief? Or shame? Would George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin experience deep sorrow in their hearts that they sacrificed so much for nothing?

Was this the posterity they fought so much for? A cowardly bunch of immoral men and women who stood down to tyranny, fell to immorality and let the government control every angle of their lives?
What would they be thinking after they heard all this? I can only imagine.

What disgrace the American people have brought upon the sacrifice of her forefathers because of her immorality and unwillingness to fight the same battles they did. After bringing our Founding Fathers this news, the only thing a reasonable person could do would be to bow his head in shame.

Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of men and women who have fought, bled and died to preserve this great nation since its founding.

What would our Founding Fathers do in your position if they switched places with you today? If they had the opportunity to right the wrongs and fight against immorality and all forms of tyranny – how would they act? What would they do?

Would they have let things get so bad? Would they have tolerated these long trains of abuses?

History answers that question quickly enough – absolutely not!

John Adams, the second president of the United States, said, “Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom! I hope you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.”

If only the American people knew their history!

    You couldn’t explain it. What has happened to America during King Obama’s reign did not exist at the time of the American Revolution. They simply could not believe that this was allowed to happen.

    I’d say, things suck and you ****ed up. You forgot the disclaimer at the bottom of our document. “This document is not subject for creative interpretation. Especially by big eared halfricans. This document is to be followed verbatim.”

    TERM LIMITS!
    I know you guys won’t believe this but people will live longer in the 21st Century and there will be “career” politicians. You need to place term limits on Congressman and Senators.

    Gentlemen:
    George, this “father of the country” is entirely too sexist; that slogan has to go. Also, you are far too manly for the office of President – maybe some mom jeans and a girl’s bicycle instead of a horse would help your modern image.
    Thomas, that interracial thing does give you some modern street cred. But if you ever envisioned the three current female members of the Supreme Court, my guess is that you would still be singing “God Save the King.”
    Ben, that womanizing you were so fond of may have been o.k. a couple of hundred years ago, but now it will get you sued, fired or jailed. And flying a kite now requires several permits and an EPA clearance.
    But don’t feel too bad – that jolly old England is now more toothless and screwed up than you could imagine.

    Gentlemen,
    You made a serious mistake. You believed that men of honor would be the ones that would run this country. You did not count on people being elected that believe more government will solve all problems. So now we are saddled with a massive government, a huge bureaucracy, burdensome regulations, and confiscatory taxes. The children in the schools are actually being taught that all of those things are good for any country, while this country has the highest unemployment it has ever seen. We actually use little pieces of paper with numbers printed on them, not backed by anything tangible, for money; the very thing you meant to end by creating our constitution. We now have public schools paid from taxes, and the Supreme Court ruled that unborn babies are not humans and the pregnancy can be terminated, with the baby being murdered, all without any criminal sanctions. This is how deeply we have sunk into oblivion.
    In closing, we, the intelligent people that remain in this country, take full responsibility for what has happened. WE failed YOU. Please accept our apology and we beg your forgiveness. You gave us an instruction manual for freedom and we ignored you. We have stood idly by while evil men opened the gates of hell and did nothing while they led the weak-minded into Hades.
    We hope the next country will learn from our mistakes.

    You knew this was going to happen, didn’t you? You warned us.
    You created positions in government meant for honest and godly men who would serve a few years then return to their livelihood.
    You never imagined they would create themselves a livelihood while serving. In order to keep that ill gotten gain flowing and power that came with it, they made it their mission to getting re-elected, term after term. They threw out God because they couldn’t follow his teachings; they became their own gods.
    It slowly turned from serving to ruling. Along with that, they had to change the American to turn against God too. When that worked, they then rushed in to fill the void God left and now look to government for their values, safety and succor.
    They created lifestyles of their subjects who no longer understood true freedom and became civilian armies to beat back and into submission those of us who recognized what was happening.
    So the patriots left are beaten down but not defeated. We fight amongst ourselves how to solve this problem. Some want to fight within the system to elect people who will not succumb to the lure of riches and will fight those within their own party to go back to your original plan for this country.
    Others think we are finished except for the fighting. Except we do not have the moral courage you did to fight for our very lives to purchase our freedom again. We do not have those who would rise up against our king to demand our freedom. They wait for someone else to start it.

    There are many great examples here where we explain where we screwed up.
    A Liberal wouldn’t be able to explain how our government is SUPPOSED to work because they are too stupid. (I use the word “Stupid” rather than “Ignorant” because the ignorant don’t know, the STUPID are too lazy to care.)
    All I could tell those great men, and all who died establishing and defending America, is, “I’m sorry. We failed.”

    Too many, way too many, politicians and lawyers in Washington who are more concerned about using our tax dollars for their frequent self-imposed pay raises than they are about the tyrants that they let through the gate for promises of great wealth if they kept their lie-holes shut about it.
    No, I’m not joking, Mr. Jefferson.
    And you should see the clown they picked to sit in the president’s chair; he really hates America and studied the constitution just so he could find ways to tear it apart. You’re lucky you are dead …
